thats not very much i thought it came with maybe 135 hp is it still a good motor to fix up? how fast have you ever seen a nissan sentra go thats a 1998

I know that all the figures state 115 at the crank, but I think Nissan might of sandbagged on that figure. If you look at the rating most will say 6000 rpm. If you look at a dyno curve of a stock GA16DE, you can see it pulls to about 6300. There should be some more power there.

picture wouldn't come up, goe to www.sportcompactcarweb.com and look at the project 1.6 They have pictures of some curves there.

You should go to this site and read the entire article about this car. all of these mods. apply to your sentra regardless of year. Some minor differences but you can do all of them. You will also get real world dyno charts that show how much HP each mod. makes.

Once your doen witht hat you can look at this site to see what our cars are capable of doing with a turbocharger.

Lastly when you are posting questions that are directly related to your motor you should post in the appropriate forum. The motor in your car is known as the GA16DE and we have a specific forum for that motor. I am going to move this post over there...

how fast have you ever seen a nissan sentra go thats a 1998

I've a VSD Concept HUD at my GA16'ed 1997 Auto Tranny Sentra & it's peak speed is at 179KMph = 111mph it were at a highway at 2000mts above sea level / ~6000ft with a loss of power of around 25%, so I know I need to change the ECU if I want to hit the higher speed reachable.

O/C I've modified the whole suspension, brakes, wheels & my a few engine mods & just got 60,000kms/40,000miles at the odometer, so don't try to do this on stock conditions.

Follow the Sentra.net advise & myoung proyect at NPM.com

nah, only big brother sr20 has 140hp to the crank.......ive seen some "quick" ga16de's.....do you mean fast as in speed or fast as in quarter mile?

Most likely the GA16DE puts out anywhere from 115 to 125 horsepower stock, according to Nissan. But, of course, for insurance and other reasons, Nissan downgrades the engine's performance. Another unique feature is that Nissan measures horsepower to the wheels, not to the crank. So, if a Nissan spec reads 125 horses, you do not have to subtract anything to get the real information. Suck on that, Honda...

uhh.....no.

Check out someof the ga16de's dyno's. Most of them are under or around 100whp. The ga was rated at the crank, not the wheels.
